Well just been on Prince Bishops streetlite. Not far but good first impression.
However when driving on Saturday I flashed out a drifter 60 streetlite and wish I didn't... Was so slow accelerating away lol. Only kidding always let then out since they tend to pull out regardless!

4974 is branded as "Fast Cats", while 5203 carries Go North East's corporate livery... For now, anyway!
